Installation - ELICA Mini OM Guía De Instalación, Uso Y Mantenimiento

Installation

1. If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in
range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to
rear wall. Otherwise put a thick, protective covering over
countertop, cooktop or range to protect from damage
and debris. Select a flat surface for assembling the unit.
Cover that surface with a protective covering and place
all canopy hood parts and hardware in it.
2. Determine and mark the centerline on the wall where the
canopy hood will be installed.
3. Select a mounting height comfortable for the user and
mark on wall.
4. Tape template, matching center-line and hood bottom as
shown in Figure below.
5. Mark center of two top fastener location and one lower
fastener location.
Remove the template.
6. Mark wall with horizontal line 1" above highest and 1"
below lowest fastener location.
7. Find studs behind drywall by tapping wall or using a stud
finder. Mark the center of the studs with a vertical line to
the right and left of the marked fastener location.
8. Note: All fastener location must span the studs
otherwise proceed as follows:
Cutout drywall along marked lines. Install wood blocking
between studs and make sure it is flush with existing
stud front. Make sure all mounting screws will anchor to
added studs. Replace drywall and refinish.
9. Ducting version ONLY:
Determine and make all necessary cuts in the wall for
the vent system. Install the vent system before the
canopy hood. See „Venting methods" and „Dimensions
and clearance" paragraphs.
Note - for Ductless - recirculating - installations: Vent
system is not required.
10. Determine position of the conduit and cut a 1-1/4" (3.2
cm) hole at this location. Position the conduit.
Run wires through hole according the National Electrical
Code or CSA Standards and local codes and
ordinances.
There must be enough power supply cable from the
fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box to make the
connection in the hood's Junction box/es.
Use caulking to seal all openings. Further adjustment do
conduit passage may be required when performing
electrical connection.
Do Not turn on power until installation is completed.
11. Remark center line and hood bottom on same location
as before and tape template on wall as in step 4 above.
12. Fix the support bracket with two dowels and wall screws
(supplied in mounting hardware kit) on top locations
marked on template, then remove template.
13. Hang up the hood.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard - Use two or more people to
move and install range hood. Failure to do so can result
in back or other injury.
14. Level the appliance, using a carpenters level across
bottom of hood with levelling screws in mounting
brackets.
Note1: Levelling screws are supplied in the hardware
packet and must be screwed on top of the bracket.
Note2: Further adjustments may be possible sliding the
brackets, loosen the screws the fix them to the body of
the hood and retighten when hood is in place as desired.
